The RGD is Ibanez's ultimate metal machine. The demands of down-tuning require a specifically designed responsiveness not found in "normal" guitars. To optimize for the rich, desirable thickness of tone that down-tuning produces, we extended the neck by one inch to a 26.5" scale. Longer-than standard yet not overly long. The neck is still considered a "fast" neck for speed soloing. Extra-deep cutaways grant comfortable access to the necks highest notes.

The tight grain of Ebony provides a smooth, dense playing surface that produces a tight low-end with the quick response needed for metal.

DiMarzio Fusion Edge Pickups

Through close collaboration between Ibanez and DiMarzio-Fusion Edge pickups have been engineered to produce a powerful, distinctive tone with a crisp, cutting high end, and a tight, compressed bottom end, minus any muddy mid-range.

Gibraltar Standard II Bridge

The Gibraltar Standard II is a simple fixed bridge that was designed to unify with the guitar's body and provide optimal transfer of each string's vibration. Smooth surface is designed to maximize playing comfort.

The original PolyTune rocked the world. It forever changed the way we look at tuning. The world's first polyphonic tuner took the hearts of guitarists by storm. Was it the jaw-droppingly awesome polyphonic tuning that made tuning much faster, easier and intuitive? The bright LED matrix with auto-dimming that ensured maximum visibility? Tuning Magnet, the slowing of the needle as you approached the correct pitch? Maybe the MonoPoly technology that sensed whether you played one or six strings and instantly adjusted accordingly?

Like musicians who never really know how they wrote that number 1 hit, it was probably a combination of factors for us. Whatever it was, you loved it and we loved it! But at TC Electronic we're all about moving forward, so we've improved on perfection and added some guitarist gems that cement PolyTune 2 as the leader of the pedal tuning pack.

Polyphonic Perfection

And the ambient light sensor makes sure you get just the right amount of brightness. Every time. It's truly amazing how bright they get, so don't come complaining if planets want to orbit your pedalboard.

The Strobe Is Strong With This One

The original PolyTune was best in class when it came to precision. Great - but why stop there?

For fine-tuning your precious gear and giving it the care and attention it deserves, to super accurate tuning in the studio or by a roadie on stage. This strobe tuner is lightning fast and ultra precise. But how precise is it? Well, let's just say if you tune and then put your pick on the fret-board - you're going to see the difference .
